Barrier Change Boss	comment	A type of boss, typically in an RPG, who doesn't have a fixed place in the game's Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors lineup. Instead, they're capable of using a special technique or ability to periodically shuffle their elemental weaknesses in order to keep the player guessing. This is where the difficulty of the battle lies; the player can't afford to just employ their favorite items and spells to win. They will have to fight at the boss's pace and react accordingly, with the right elements. This boss is usually a powerful spellcaster (implying that their special barrier-change technique is a high-level boss ability), and often has a significant role in the surrounding story. Alternatively, they're some sort of Elemental Shapeshifter. It may or may not be possible to use an Enemy Scan on this type of boss — even if the scan does tell you their weakness, that information might quickly become dated in a few turns, when they decide to change weaknesses once more (assuming the boss doesn't react to your scan by changing his weakness immediately). On the other hand, sometimes you can quickly identify the boss's current weakness — the invocation may explicitly tell you which element to use, or the current weakness may be Color-Coded for Your Convenience (e.g. if the boss has Deflector Shields). In rare cases, smart players can just utilize an Infinity +1 Element attack that spares them from having to keep up with the boss's rotating weaknesses, although it's likely they will need to work really hard (or exploit the game) to obtain access to said attack before the battle. A Sub-Trope of Puzzle Boss and Toggling Setpiece Puzzle.

We have the Quick Time Distorter, the Data Collector, the Garbage Tracker, the Virus Core... in a twist, you usually have to hit it with whatever element it is currently using, rather than which one you think it'd be weak to (although there are exceptions).

Fortunately, the game tells you what, if anything, every enemy you face is tolerant (immune) to by way of glowing orange text next to its lifebar. On that note is the recurring boss within The World itself: The One Sin. Rumored to be very, very powerful, it can only be damaged by an element that is opposite itself when it fights. The last person who defeated it was Balmung; his unique angel-like look is the prize for defeating it. Apparently it was so powerful a semi-famous player poet composed a poem and gave Balmung (and Orca) nicknames "Descendants of Fianna" and it stuck. The One Sin makes a gameplay appearance in .hack//G.U. Reminisce. True to its name, it can only be hurt by elements opposite of its color, and even then, you need to defeat its two shields before it momentarily opens up to reveal the core. An even nastier variant, The One Godeater, appears in .hack//G.U. Redemption. Now, it only responds to either Darkness or Light spells. This narrows down to two elements, but the boss itself is very, very hard even with that advantage.

Barrier Change Boss / int_1c1ceec7	comment	Several of the eponymous megafauna in Monster Hunter have a gimmick like this: Monster Hunter 3 (Tri): The Barroth is weak against water while covered in mud, and weak against fire when not. He flings his mud off by shaking in one of his attacks, and sometimes rolls in mud to cover himself back up. You generally just have to pick either a fire or a water element weapon and try to attack just parts that are covered/uncovered, but Bowgunners can bring both Water and Fire shots. Barroth also carries a secondary weakness to Ice that doesn't change with the mud armor's state, allowing players to ignore the whole thing. The Stygian Zinogre, introduced in the Updated Re-release 3 Ultimate, is heavily weak to all elements and ailments when depowered, most notably Dragon, and while it's immune to most elements and ailments when supercharged, it gains a pronounced weakness to Water in this state. Monster Hunter: World: Kulve Taroth starts the battle immune to Ice damage, but weak to Thunder damage. Once her golden mantle comes off, these weaknesses swap, and she gains a greater weakness to Dragon as well. Like Barroth, however, Water retains the same effectiveness throughout the fight, so you can just focus on Water damage if you wish. The Iceborne version of Alatreon changes weaknesses depending on its elemental state, Ice for Fire Active, Fire for Ice Active and Dragon for Dragon Active. This is important, as while it's not completely immune to all other types of damage, you have to deal enough elemental damage to topple it in under 3 minutes to weaken it, or else it'll perform its Escaton Judgement move and cart you instantaneously.

Barrier Change Boss / int_2f203125	comment	Shin Megami Tensei In Persona 4, Kunino-Sagiri does a variant on this. His Quad Converge skill makes three out of the four main offensive elements almost completely ineffective, but the remaining one very powerful. The trick is that he is weak to the element he uses to attack). In Persona 3, this is used for Nyx Avatar, the final boss, the Emperor/Empress Dual Boss, and the Optional Boss, Elizabeth, who changes her persona every turn, which also changes the type of attacks that she nulls. Similarly, Margaret, the Optional Boss from Persona 4, also changes her resistances based on which Persona she last used. As does Isamu/Noah in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. What makes him particularly annoying is that he shifts barriers and only one element can hurt him. Anything else will be reflected. Every boss of this kind in the SMT games can be bypassed with Almighty skills. But Noah? He takes only 10% damage from Almighty skills, so you will have to pay atention to his pattern. That is, unless you get Pierce and Freikugel on the Main Character (which means being locked into the True Demon Ending), then you can just nuke Noah with Focused Freikugels. In Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, both the normal Final Boss and the Superboss randomly change weaknesses and resistances. Thankfully, there's a cheap Sub App (Gibdo Eye) that changes your cursor's appearance when your attack won't work. Most players skip the game of "What works now?" and jump straight to Almighty spells, which cannot be resisted. In Shin Megami Tensei IV, Seraph, one of the bosses in Purgatorium, puts up a colored wall that corresponds to a certain element. Using that element will break the wall and allow Seraph to be damaged. Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse has three of these. The first is Inanna, the fifth boss of the Cosmic Egg, who uses moves that makes her weak to the opposite element. The second is the same dungeon's final boss, Vishnu-Flynn, who, in his second form, switches between being weak to Light and Dark. DLC provides the third example in Cleopatra, who starts with a weakness to Dark while occasionally using a move that will switch her weakness when it is exploited. Digital Devil Saga Huang Long, one of the last Optional Bosses in the first game, has this gimmick and he can shift barriers as well. You're supposed to use the element that comes after whatever the boss is using (ie; Huang Long is using Fire, use Ice). Huang Long however also possesses a form where he is immune to everything, including Almighty. Abaddon and Meganada in the sequel count as well. Abaddon basically has three forms that are reminiscent of three previous bosses and thus also has their elemental properties and attacks. One form uses Physical skills, another form uses magic, and the last form buffs, debuffs, and poisons. He always starts out in the Physical form, and once he's been in all three forms, he will randomly shift them around. Abaddon also possesses a nasty trick: he can swallow a party member, leaving you with only two damage dealers. Pray that this hits Cielo because he actually forces himself into the active party for this battle. As for Meganada, he can render himself immune to either Physical or elemental magic attacks depending on what aspect the boss is using. He starts out immune to Physical and what is common with both of these aspects is that Meganada absorbs Electricity and has standard boss immunities. Vishnu and Shiva, both of them being tough Optional Bosses in Digital Devil Saga 2, also change barriers. Shiva can only be hit by certain elements and what hits him is consistent depending on the turn order (on the first turn, only Fire and Ice will hurt him; everything else except Almighty will be reflected back in your face.) Vishnu however changes his resistances based on what you used against him. The last Optional Boss, Satan, also changes resistances every turn. Put this on top of the other type of phase change and the fact that he can fully heal himself towards the end of the fight, and you get one very difficult opponent. Devil Survivor 2: Beelzebub normally reflects everything and No Sells Curse element (thankfully, he doesn't resist Almighty), but depending on what Mooks he summons, he stops reflecting one element, and the fewer the number of mooks, the more vulnerable he is to that element. Problem is, as soon as he is attacked, or once there are no mooks left, he will summon a new set of mooks and change his elemental resistances.

The hue indicates what it's currently most resistant against, and also hints at the current weakness. Fire plate is weak against ice, the Ice plate is weak against volt, the Volt plate is weak against fire, and the colorless plate makes it resistant against physical attacks and neutral against elements.

Though, it showed you what element he was changing into with Seal of Entropy, and by displaying the game's icon for the element slide over his limbs, into his chest, you only have a "deck" of cards that explain your weapon usage. So you can't really specialize in all elements, or choose any particular attack that would defeat his element quickly, but instead have each of your team special in three or four elements (Chrono or Wind, Fire or Water, Light or Dark) or pack yourself full of non-element based cards and drag the fight out for a good hour or so. Fortunately, three specific characters actually specialize in those very combinations (Kalas has Chrono/Wind, Sayna has Fire/Water, and Lyude has Light/Dark).

Barrier Change Boss / int_49a87cb3	comment	Final Fantasy VII: Jersey, found in Shinra Mansion in Nibelheim. It is an enemy which determines if it is immune to magic or physical damage by raising one arm and lowering the other arm. A unique example in the form of Lost Number, a Optional Boss in the Shinra Mansion. It starts the battle using powerful but not devastating physical and magical attacks. After losing half its HP, it will change to reflect the source of the most damage it received: if most of the damage was done with magic, it will become immune to magic and use extremely powerful magic attacks exclusively. A similar effect occurs for physical attacks, which tend to be slightly less devastating as it can still only hit one character at a time. In the remake, the Hell House will periodically change between fire, ice, lightning, and wind. Also, the various ghost-type enemies (including one boss) can alternate between immunity to physical attacks and immunity to magic. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has White Mousses. Hit one with an elemental attack and it gains resistance to that element. It can only resist one element at a time, so the player is encouraged to alternate between elements.

Barrier Change Boss / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft: While not any bosses (unless they've been forgotten), there are several types of enemies which become more resistant to magic types they've been struck with. The death knight talent Acclimation also makes causes them to develop greater magical resistance for each time that kind of energy strikes them. There isn't a corresponding weakness however, so being struck by multiple types of magic just makes the effect stronger. Chromaggus, the gigantic Draekadon (two-headed dragon-like Core Hound), second-to-last boss of Blackwing Lair, will change his resistances and weakness to elemental damage during the fight. When he shimmers, they change: he'll be weak to one type and nearly immune to the rest. It changes every so often, so players have to keep on their toes.

Barrier Change Boss / int_4c363bcc	comment	Sentinels of the Multiverse: The villain Omnitron has a card called Adaptive Plating Subroutine. This card makes it immune to damage of the last type to damage it. For example, if it were dealt Melee damage, it would become immune to Melee; if it were then dealt Sonic damage, it would become immune to Sonic. This is annoying most of the time, and crippling if your team primarily deals a single damage type. As an Ongoing, however, it's fairly easy to just blow it up and not have to bother.

It takes him a long time to change, though, and once he's been scanned once, you don't need to scan him again. 4 does this with the Crystal Golem, the second boss of the game, who changes between Fire, Ice, Lightning as soon as it takes a single hit (that includes individual hits from multi-hit attacks). Like the above, once it's scanned you don't have to do it again. However, you can bypass this by attacking with the Water and Bomb elements, although they won't be quite as strong. 5 's Cosmic Gigalith is weak to one element while being immune to the rest, and changes the weakness every few turns.

The Initiate of the Sevenfold Veil prestige class essentially allows a PC to become one of these herself, (eventually) creating any of seven different barriers, each with a different effect on objects and creatures that pass through it (ranging from stopping missile attacks to warping creatures to a random plane if they fail a Will save), and each dispelled by contact with a different spell. (They're even color-coded in the sourcebook, though the text encourages players to invent their own flavors for RP purposes.)

The color of its contents determines its element: attacking the cauldron with its opposing element will result in it stunning Ursula. One of the secret bosses (Phantom) shuffles weak points as well, including physical hits. It's also annoying because Phantom is also a Time-Limit Boss because of a curse on the Big Ben. The international and final mix versions add a third boss to the list: Kurt Zisa. Instead of changing elements, he alternates between sealing all magic attacks and creating an anti-physical barrier. The former is especially annoying since it also seals spells like Aero and Cure.

Barrier Change Boss / int_84986bf9	comment	RuneScape: Dagannoth and Gelatinnoth Mothers change color depending if they're weak to air, earth, water, or fire spells, ranged attacks, or special and melee damage. There are Tormented Demons and the Dungeoneering bosses Astea Frostweb and the Skelletal Trio, who switch protection prayers periodically. Also, the Kalphite Queen has two forms, each of which have certain resistances (even though they appear as protection prayers, the Queen can still be hurt by those types of attacks, though it counts as if the Queen had insanely high defence in those attack types, so hits happen very seldom, even if for high damage). Akrisae the Doomed also can use protection prayers, but unlike other enemies does not have unlimited prayer, though takes a long time to run out. Sigmund also uses protection prayers, and is able to switch prayers too quickly for the player to get though them so the only way to take him down is either with the help of an NPC or with the help of a special mace that disables his prayers. Players can (and will) invert this; with prayers, you can block the three attack types. However, to avoid completely breaking the game, you can only have one protection prayer (melee, magic, or ranged) active at a time. Much of the high level content requires players to swap protection prayers to block enemy attacks. Since the evolution of combat update, prayers used by players now only block up to 50% of damage against most enemies and are only 100% effective in special situations. In the Barbarian Assault minigame, every enemy except ironically the bosses uses barrier change mechanics. In the game, there are five players who each take on one of four roles. Each role has to tell a different role which weakness to target, and the weaknesses changes every thirty seconds. Collectors have to tell fighters what combat style to use against the fighter and ranger enemies, while attackers have to tell collectors which eggs are currently safe to pick up. Defenders tell healers which type of poisoned food to use against the enemy healers, while healers tell defenders which type of bait to use to trap the enemy runners. The Queen Black Dragon during her third and fourth phases can either harden or crystallize herself to make herself resistant to non-magic or magic attacks respectively, although not so much that you are actually forced to change styles.

Once her golden mantle comes off, these weaknesses swap, and she gains a greater weakness to Dragon as well.

The Iceborne version of Alatreon changes weaknesses depending on its elemental state, Ice for Fire Active, Fire for Ice Active and Dragon for Dragon Active. This is important, as while it's not completely immune to all other types of damage, you have to deal enough elemental damage to topple it in under 3 minutes to weaken it, or else it'll perform its Escaton Judgement move and cart you instantaneously.

Extra fun if you have a 'mon in your party with Dragon-type or Ghost-type moves, as both types are weak to attacks of their own type. As of Gen VI it gained the Hidden Ability Protean, which changes its type to whatever move it's going to use, basically giving it STAB on everything. The Froakie line also has this Ability as its Hidden one, and the Scorbunny line gets a renamed variant in Libero. Another PokÃ©mon does this as well — the Porygon family's Conversion (changes type to that of one of its own attacks) and Conversion2 (changes type to what resists the last attack that hit) attacks. The latter is a bit more useful in Double Battles (Porygon2 are sturdy enough that it can Recover the damage dealt by its partner. PorygonZ, not so much.), though it's still not recommended. The move Camouflage changes the PokÃ©mon type depending on the environment. There's also Castform, with its ability to change its type, as well as the effects of its signature move, Weather Ball, depending on the weather, becoming Fire-type in strong sunlight, Water-type in rain, and Ice-type in hail (though strangely, there's no alternate form for a sandstorm). The final boss of PokÃ©mon Super Mystery Dungeon does this. It starts off with no type, and changes to three other types as the fight progresses. PokÃ©mon Legends: Arceus turns the titular character into an extreme version of this with the Legend Plate, a hold item that turns Arceus and its Signature Move Judgement into a type that is both super effective against the opposing Pokemon's type(s) and resistant to it (prioritising the Pokemon's primary type over its secondary). Since there are over 300 type permutations, going over every single one would take ages, so here are the types the Legend Plate turns Arceus and Judgement into when Arceus is faced with a single-typed Pokemon: Normal-type foe: Fighting-type Judgement/Arceus (Fighting is the only type that's super effective against Normal). Grass-type foe: Judgment/Arceus becomes Fire, Bug, Flying, or Poison (Ice doesn't resist Grass, the other four types do). Fire-type foe: Water or Rock type Judgement/Arceus (Ground, Fire's other weakness, doesn't resist Fire).

This mechanic can be used offensively or defensively. Usually, a pokemon's Tera Type will be one of their usual types, getting 2x STAB on the Tera typed attacks instead of the normal 1.5x, and losing the other type's weaknesses. However, a pokemon's Tera type can be any of the 18 types in the game, and a smart trainer can play Confusion Fu with their opponent by switching to a completely different type, changing their pokemon's weaknesses completely, and gaining STAB on a third type, especially if the pokemon knows Tera Blast.

This is one of the few instances where Boney's Sniff command is very useful, though it's not actually necessary if you opt for non-elemental attacks or realize that their weakness is determined by which one of the trio is calling out the pose.

Barrier Change Boss / int_a81325d3	comment	Final Fantasy has a LOT of these: Final Fantasy III has a boss named Hein that can change his elemental weakness during the battle. He's encountered just after you acquire the second set of jobs, which conveniently has a class that can scan for weakness. Rubicante from Final Fantasy IV changes his weakness from ice to fire when he draws his cloak. Yes, this means you can kill the Fiend of Fire entirely with fire damage. In the 3D remake of Final Fantasy IV, Golbez knows Barrier Shift, and recasts it every single time you successfully hit his current weakness. Final Fantasy IV: The After Years has the Blade Dragon, the Optional Boss in Palom's Challenge Dungeon. It counters with a powerful attack and heals itself if you try to use anything on it that isn't an elemental attack (such as a physical attack, Bio, or even Libra). To win, you must use the one elemental spell type it isn't using. Several bosses in Final Fantasy V change their elements, the most infamous being Archeoaevis and Optional Boss Omega MK II. Final Fantasy VI has Number 024, Master Pug/Tonberry, and the Magi Master; the latter is especially frustrating for being fought in a dungeon where only magic can be used. The Updated Re-release includes Kaiser Dragon as well. Luckily for you, except for Magi Master, all the other ones will change their attack pattern depending on what their weakness is. Also, you can use the Debilitator to add another weakness to them... until they barrier change again, anyways. Final Fantasy VII: Jersey, found in Shinra Mansion in Nibelheim. It is an enemy which determines if it is immune to magic or physical damage by raising one arm and lowering the other arm. A unique example in the form of Lost Number, a Optional Boss in the Shinra Mansion. It starts the battle using powerful but not devastating physical and magical attacks. After losing half its HP, it will change to reflect the source of the most damage it received: if most of the damage was done with magic, it will become immune to magic and use extremely powerful magic attacks exclusively. A similar effect occurs for physical attacks, which tend to be slightly less devastating as it can still only hit one character at a time. In the remake, the Hell House will periodically change between fire, ice, lightning, and wind. Also, the various ghost-type enemies (including one boss) can alternate between immunity to physical attacks and immunity to magic. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has White Mousses. Hit one with an elemental attack and it gains resistance to that element. It can only resist one element at a time, so the player is encouraged to alternate between elements. Spherimorph and Greater Sphere in Final Fantasy X. While the former's weakness can be revealed by attacking it, Greater Sphere loves to counter any action against it with Ultima. Seymour Omnis changes elements as well. Some high-end bosses in Final Fantasy XI have the ability to either negate physical or magical damage, one of the more notable ones being the Final Boss of Chains of Promathia. There are also a few normal enemies that have such abilities, too. Various bosses in Final Fantasy XII (Phoenix, Zodiark, Trickster, Shemhazai, Omega Mark XII, and Bull Chocobo) have Shift, which makes them weak to one element while absorbing all others. Hitting their elemental weakness causes it to change. Most bosses past about the halfway point, and virtually all Optional Bosses have alternating Palings, barriers which make them immune to either magic or physical damage. Final Fantasy XIII: Amphisbaena. Although the "Barrier Change" is easier to deal it because characters can use multiple spells at once, the "Boss" part is a little harder to manage. They come back as Demonic Spiders later in the story. Cid Raines will adapt his fighting style and the abilities used based on your paradigms. The Aster Protoflorian, whose first appearance (that's right, even stronger versions appear later as Demonic Spiders) is specifically meant to give you a wake up call if you've still not got the battle system sussed. It periodically switches its attacking element, making the opposing element its weakness. Hopefully, you've been grinding enough to have a spell of each element unlocked...

Barrier Change Boss / int_af552e7e	comment	Metroid Prime: The first form of the eponymous final boss is only weak to the sort of attacks it's using at the time, though a simpler way to see its weakness is by the color of the markings on its body; yellow for the Power Beam, purple for the Wave Beam, white for the Ice Beam, and red for the Plasma Beam. In later stages of the battle with this form, it'll occasionally switch, and then immediately switch again, sometimes back to the weakness/attack setup it had before, trying to trick you into having the wrong beam ready. The second phase of the final boss is able to become imperceptible to all but one of your three visors. Unlike most of these examples, however, there is a set cycle as to which visor can see it.

Barrier Change Boss / int_bbcd4e9b	comment	Digital Devil Saga Huang Long, one of the last Optional Bosses in the first game, has this gimmick and he can shift barriers as well. You're supposed to use the element that comes after whatever the boss is using (ie; Huang Long is using Fire, use Ice). Huang Long however also possesses a form where he is immune to everything, including Almighty. Abaddon and Meganada in the sequel count as well. Abaddon basically has three forms that are reminiscent of three previous bosses and thus also has their elemental properties and attacks. One form uses Physical skills, another form uses magic, and the last form buffs, debuffs, and poisons. He always starts out in the Physical form, and once he's been in all three forms, he will randomly shift them around. Abaddon also possesses a nasty trick: he can swallow a party member, leaving you with only two damage dealers. Pray that this hits Cielo because he actually forces himself into the active party for this battle. As for Meganada, he can render himself immune to either Physical or elemental magic attacks depending on what aspect the boss is using. He starts out immune to Physical and what is common with both of these aspects is that Meganada absorbs Electricity and has standard boss immunities. Vishnu and Shiva, both of them being tough Optional Bosses in Digital Devil Saga 2, also change barriers. Shiva can only be hit by certain elements and what hits him is consistent depending on the turn order (on the first turn, only Fire and Ice will hurt him; everything else except Almighty will be reflected back in your face.) Vishnu however changes his resistances based on what you used against him. The last Optional Boss, Satan, also changes resistances every turn. Put this on top of the other type of phase change and the fact that he can fully heal himself towards the end of the fight, and you get one very difficult opponent.

The final form of the Emperor Ing alternates between becoming invulnerable to dark energy, light energy, and "neutral" energy (the Power Beam). The former two can be thwarted with the Annihilator Beam, which covers both elements, but burns both kinds of ammo (which you're probably quite low on at this point).

Barrier Change Boss / int_c0c57462	comment	Chrono Trigger The Trope Namer is the move Barrier Change used by Magus. Magus was in fact healed by Elemental Powers which did not match the element of his barrier, and changing his barrier also inflicted high elemental damage to your entire party. Fortunately, if you didn't have magic that matched his barrier, you could force him to change it (at the cost of getting hit by the aforementioned damage) with physical attacks. He also had four barriers he could apply, and the most you can possibly counter are three with any given party; only two if you picked Marle as your optional teammate. The hard part of the fight actually came after he dropped his barriers entirely, because that was when he broke out his most devastating spell, Dark Matter. There is also a lesser example in the Jesters in his castle. It starts with a magic-blocking barrier. Use physical attacks and it barrier swaps to a physical barrier. There's also the Golems, who attack-swap based on the attacks you use on them. Of course, by simply rotating elemental attacks, you can stick them in an endless loop where they have to charge each new element. You can also wear equipment that nullifies or absorbs a certain element, then just attack with that element.

Since there are over 300 type permutations, going over every single one would take ages, so here are the types the Legend Plate turns Arceus and Judgement into when Arceus is faced with a single-typed Pokemon: Normal-type foe: Fighting-type Judgement/Arceus (Fighting is the only type that's super effective against Normal). Grass-type foe: Judgment/Arceus becomes Fire, Bug, Flying, or Poison (Ice doesn't resist Grass, the other four types do).

Poison-type foe: Ground-type Judgement/Arceus (of the two types that are super effective against Poison, only Ground resists Poison, Psychic doesn't). Flying-type foe: Rock or Electric type Judgement/Arceus (Ice, Flying's other weakness, doesn't resist Flying). Fighting-type foe: Judgement/Arceus becomes Flying, Psychic, or Fairy (all three types are equally super effective and resistant to Fighting). Rock-type foe: Judgement/Arceus becomes Fighting, Ground, or Steel (Water and Grass, Rock's other weaknesses, don't resist Rock). Ground-type foe: Grass-type Judgement/Arceus (Water and Ice, Ground's other weaknesses, don't resist Ground). Ice-type foe: Judgement/Arceus becomes Fire or Steel (Rock and Fighting, Ice's other weaknesses, don't resist Ice). Psychic-type foe: Dark-type Judgement/Arceus (Dark is the only one of Psychic's weaknesses to be immue to it). Ghost-type foe: Dark-type Judgement/Arceus (Dark is the only one of Ghost's weaknesses to resist it). Dragon-type foe: Fairy-type Judgement/Arceus (Fairy is the only one of Dragon's weaknesses to be immue to it).

Legion's Gemsplosion attack will always trigger this. The Master Stone switches elements every turn, in addition to its normal attacks. The best way to deal with the Stone is to curse it, which not only locks it in its current form but also limits it to a relatively weak physical attack.

Barrier Change Boss / int_da448595	comment	The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Fraaz, the boss of the Snow Temple, performs attacks based on fire and ice to confront Link, but its weakness is also related to those same elements. When it's preparing an attack from either element, Link has to inflict damage on it by imbuing his Boomerang with the opposite one. The boss is smart enough to subvert Boss-Arena Idiocy when it destroys the torches Link has been making his Boomerang pass by to imbue the corresponding element to it, but since the boss still attacks back and forth with both elements instead of sticking with one (and, therefore, also switches its own elemental weaknesses) it ends up being a Tactical Suicide Boss, prompting its defeat anyway.

Arachnyte's Adaptive trait changes its secondary type (Digital) to the type of the attack it just received and boosts its special attack, but only once per battle.

Barrier Change Boss / int_eb6802b4	comment	Final Fantasy XIII: Amphisbaena. Although the "Barrier Change" is easier to deal it because characters can use multiple spells at once, the "Boss" part is a little harder to manage. They come back as Demonic Spiders later in the story. Cid Raines will adapt his fighting style and the abilities used based on your paradigms. The Aster Protoflorian, whose first appearance (that's right, even stronger versions appear later as Demonic Spiders) is specifically meant to give you a wake up call if you've still not got the battle system sussed. It periodically switches its attacking element, making the opposing element its weakness. Hopefully, you've been grinding enough to have a spell of each element unlocked...

Barrier Change Boss / int_ef8bd4a5	comment	Mega Man In Mega Man Powered Up, both Copy Man and Wily are subjective to this. In both cases, they randomly switch between the powers of the game's Robot Masters, and, at that point, are weak to the same weapon the respective boss is. The first form of Mega Man X8's True Final Boss switches between 8 different patterns (derived from the 8 main Maverick Bosses) with each form having the appropriate Maverick's weakness. Copy-X in both Mega Man Zero and Zero 3 can change between Fire, Ice, Lightning and Non-Elemental in his first form. In the latter game, the Non-Elemental form gets a special attack to compensate.

Barrier Change Boss / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Metroid Prime: The first form of the eponymous final boss is only weak to the sort of attacks it's using at the time, though a simpler way to see its weakness is by the color of the markings on its body; yellow for the Power Beam, purple for the Wave Beam, white for the Ice Beam, and red for the Plasma Beam. In later stages of the battle with this form, it'll occasionally switch, and then immediately switch again, sometimes back to the weakness/attack setup it had before, trying to trick you into having the wrong beam ready. The second phase of the final boss is able to become imperceptible to all but one of your three visors. Unlike most of these examples, however, there is a set cycle as to which visor can see it. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: There are several enemies, including some bosses, that exhibit a downplayed example, changing once from a dark-vulnerable to light-vulnerable form after taking a certain amount of damage, and some straight examples too in which the enemy randomly changes between being vulnerable to dark and to light (such as the Ingsmashers). The final form of the Emperor Ing alternates between becoming invulnerable to dark energy, light energy, and "neutral" energy (the Power Beam). The former two can be thwarted with the Annihilator Beam, which covers both elements, but burns both kinds of ammo (which you're probably quite low on at this point). Gorea's initial form in Metroid Prime: Hunters changes colors throughout the battle, with the color matching that of the Affinity Weapon you should be using to damage its shoulders and make it reveal its true weak point. Just like with Metroid Prime's core essence, there's a set pattern to what you should shoot it with. However, no matter the color of its armor, it's always weak to the Power Beam and missiles. The secret final phase of the fight drops this and is immune to everything save the Omega Cannon.

Barrier Change Boss / int_f120845f	comment	Kingdom of Loathing: Mother Slime at the bottom of the Slime Tube doesn't technically change her resistance, but every 500 points of damage from a certain element (or lack thereof), she mutates a defense against that type of attack for the remainder of the fight. She has just shy of 3000 hit points. There are five elements in the game, plus one for non-elemental physical damage. There is a reward for defeating her without triggering any of her defense mutations. There's also Dad Sea Monkee, the final boss of The Sea. He becomes immune to all but one type of damage each round, the cycle of which is vaguely hinted at in his description.

Barrier Change Boss / int_f7c8e36e	comment	Octopath Traveler: Many later bosses will change their weaknesses every time they recover from Break. Some of them also keep their weaknesses protected, requiring you to either get rid of their flunkies first or Break them using the few weaknesses that are available to reveal more. Special mention goes to Redeye, the final boss of H'aanit's story, who does this every turn (although it always retains a weakness to light). In one phase of the True Final Boss, the boss summons three damned souls to defend it, and each has five weaknesses — but only one is vulnerable at a time, and any hits each takes shuffles the weakness one space, forcing the player to hit them one at a time to make the weaknesses line up before hitting them all at once with the appropriate weakness.

Eventually the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise figured out that they should modify their phasers to randomly switch frequencies after each shot to keep the Borg off their game. Even then, they adapt after several shots.
